The correct answer is: 73.4
Weight of Phenol w A =2.0× 10 2  kg=20 g

Weight of Benzene w B =1.0 kg

Δ T i =0.69 K K f =5 .12 K kg mol 1

Δ T f = i K f m

i= Δ T f K f m = 0.69 5.12× 20 94 = 0.69×94 5.12×20 ,i=0.63

2 A A 2 1 - x x / 2

Particle after association   i  = 1 - x + x / 2 = 1 - x / 2

i = 1 - x / 2

0.63 = 1- x 2 x 0.734  i.e., 73.4 %
